Consumer Reports and Direct Buy
Consumer Reports magazine wouldn't allow me to post this on their blog entry about Direct Buy. I won't be renewing my subscription.
Allow me to say what everyone with any sense already knows: the vast majority of pro-Direct Buy comments here and elsewhere online are made by paid employees of Direct Buy or their agents. They use the same sockpuppet language, the same stale old talking points. It's the old con: create a false controversy to keep suckers coming in. Swear that up is down and black is white, whatever it takes to separate the credulous from their cash.
The economy is in full-press Darwinian mode. The gullible have been selected for rendering. The truth is an impediment in this process, and must be countered with a plentiful helping of well-financed lies.
The sharks are telling us to come on in; the water is fine. Pay no attention to those shark-bite survivors screaming and frantically trying to warn you!
